Method
step 1
For the kofte, mix everything together with half the lemon juice and all the zest and some seasoning. Chill while you make the slaw.
step 2
Mix the tahini and yogurt with the remaining lemon juice. Tip the beetroot, celeriac and cabbage into a bowl then pour over the dressing and season. Toss well so all the veg are coated.
step 3
Form the kofte mix into 12 small ovals and grill on a foil-lined baking tray for 10 minutes, until cooked, turning halfway through. Serve with the slaw, hummus and green salad, if you like.
